Tracing the Tribe is a blog about Jewish genealogy - All the developments, tools and resources you'll need to peer more closely into your family tree. Created in 2006 at JTA's request, it is now independent.

The Southern California Genealogical Society 2009 Jamboree was a great event in every way. Tracing the Tribe was interviewed at the conference by the Genealogy Guys, Drew Smith and George Morgan.

The Genealogy Guys Podcast was posted a few days ago; click here to view the video interview which covered Jewish genealogy in general, FamilyTreeDNA.com, MyHeritage.com, Tracing the Tribe and much more!

Here's another head's up: Tracing the Tribe will be interviewed by Susan E. King on her online radio show on Tuesday, November 3. Stay tuned for more information.

Getting back to the extremely successful Jamboree conference for a moment - I hope readers have their calendars marked for Jamboree 2010, June 11-16 at the Burbank Airport Marriott. Tracing the Tribe will be there again, as will many other geneabloggers, with many special events planned.

Just a few short weeks after Jamboree, Jewish genealogists and those searching their Jewish ancestry from around the world will also be converging on Los Angeles, as the 30th IAJGS International Conference on Jewish Genealogy (JGSLA 2010) is set for July 11-16, at the new JW Marriott at L.A. Live.

Tracing the Tribe will be covering Jamboree and also working closely in several important areas with JGSLA 2010. Stay tuned for lots of exciting news!
